Why Not? I think your board looked good, stop being a whimp and stand up for yourself.Point taken ill not tie wrap things in future, this is the only one I have ever done it on anyway.
That and the busses ran late and people didn't have their tickets checkedI remember getting a right rollocking off my leading electrician once for tie wrapping a load of line conductors together. It took me quite a while and I was well pleased with it, but I was made to take them all off. Never done it since.

I am not a tywrap man myself andy, but the board didn't look untidy and it was only a few small cores, no big issue IMO, now if it was a 36 way board and every core wrapped I would be jumping up and down about it lol.

3 or 4 phase conductors is no big deal is it?So it's better not to ty-wrap grouped conductors in any size of CU/DB then!! ...lol!!
LOL, hahaI wasn't casting any aspersions over the CU in this thread, just saying that I have a habit of not using them caused by a previous arse chewing .. lol
Strangely enough, thinking back, the same guy liked me ty-wrap CPCs and neutrals together in large TP+N boards..... He was Irish though.

Ill probably not put them on next time now you have all said that, probably got another three board changes over the next week, so ill see what happens, to be honest, its only derated it fractionally as its only a tiny bit thats bunched, plus they would all be in exactly the same position if not tied anyway.
but thanks though.
the hager board has a much tighter tollerance on the din rail, or the MCB even, when you tighten them up they don't slant like the MK boards do.
I just prefer them, I think they are a lot better.
:angry_smile:
Just put my first (and last) MK board in. Horrible. RCD wouldn't trip, slanting MCBs, pre-wired links pulled out of crimps...
That Hager is nice, but try a BG (British General). You won't be disappointed.
